Before we met, I was as lost as a person could be and yet you saw something in me that somehow gave me direction again.

Stories are as unique as the people who tell them, and the best stories are those in which the ending is a surprise.

Everyone has a past, but that`s just it - it`s in the past. You can learn from it, but you can`t change it.

There are moments when I wish I could roll back the clock and take all the sadness away, but I have the feeling that if I did, the joy would be gone as well. So I take the memories as they come, accepting them all, letting them guide me whenever I can.

It takes a long time to grow an old friend, and trust is built a single moment at a time.

I steeled myself to focus only on the present yet remain alert to what might come next.

It`s impossible to protect your kids against disappointment in life.

Does trust have to be earned? Or is it simply a matter of faith?

I love you more than there are fishes in the sea, and higher than the moon.

Frugality, I`ve learned, has its own cost, one that sometimes lasts forever.

Love is a wonderful thing. It makes life worthwhile. I love being in love.

Long-term relationships - the ones that matter - are all about weathering the peaks and the valleys.

Love, after all, always said more about those who felt it than it did about the ones they loved.

I truly believe that while love can hurt, love can also heal.

How far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?
